Rick Carlow: Sam Davis

Quotes 

• Tom Sawyer : Well, highwaymen are the best type of robbers, so I guess we'll be highwaymen. We'll stop stages, kill the people and take the money.

  Ben Rogers : Do we have to kill the people?

  Tom Sawyer : Didn't I tell you? That's the way it's in the book. 'Course we do! 'Cept the ones we want for ransom.

  Huckleberry Finn : Ransom? What's that?

  Tom Sawyer : Well, I don't know, exactly, but that's what all the books says, so we gotta do it. We'll take some, and hold 'em for ransom. I reckon it means, tie 'em up and wait till their dead.

  Sam Davis : Sounds like a lot of bother to me, means they'd have to be guarded and fed and stuff. Why can't we take a club and ransom them straight off?

  Tom Sawyer : Because it's not in the books, that's why!
